Chapter 666: Solid State Brain
The solid-state brain is a technology researched by collectors, and it can also be understood as the genetic blueprint of an organism organ, and the main reason for trying to design this new brain is that collectors need to upgrade their brains.
For example, a hard landing from a height of several hundred meters without deceleration, even if the gatherer's physical strength can withstand it, does not mean that their brain can withstand it...... Of course, it's not just the impact resistance that there are other performance improvements, just like the mothership creatures compared to the leapfrog creatures, and the collectors want a brain-making brain that surpasses the current organic brain built from nerve cells.
As a result, collectors turned their attention to computers, and they wanted to combine the advantages of computers, such as ruggedness and fast data processing, with the organic brains they currently use, which was the original idea of the solid-state brain.
But when it comes to the development of solid-state brains, there is an obvious question that needs to be solved, and that is how to ensure that the way collectors can use this new type of brain to ensure that their thinking patterns are the same as before?
At first, the collectors wanted to directly load the thinking into the computer, first complete the filling of the thinking, and then consider the optimization of the computer.
Forced thought transfer will not work, for example, the same data, the binary computer and the ternary computer will interpret the results in two completely different ways.
Therefore, it is necessary for the computer to 'read' the mind of the collector, so how to make the computer 'read' the mind of the collector?
Definition, constantly use various algorithms to define specifications, and use the rules and regulations of algorithms to outline the thinking of collectors.
However, just like trying to draw a circle on a square with the circumcision method, the collectors cannot rely on this method to outline a definition that conforms to the thinking of the collectors, and the definition can only be infinitely close to the thinking of the collectors, but cannot fully fit.
In other words, the idea of a pure computer will not work, and if you want to develop a solid-state brain that can accommodate the thinking of the collector, the collector needs to find another way.
The collectors then focused their thinking on the AI lifeforms.
The design of a solid-state brain can be completed by finding a ready-made lifeform template, and the collectors can obtain its structural information, study it, and then improve it on the basis of this lifeform template to fit the thinking of the collectors.
It sounds much easier than trying to think about the definition of a computer, but it's actually quite difficult.
First of all, there must be an artificial intelligence lifeform as a template, and secondly, because of the different life forms, collectors need to deeply analyze the inner life of the lifeform, whether it is hardware or software.
Before the gatherers found the Odegar β civilization, their main idea was to complete the solid-state brain through artificially cultivated artificial intelligence, and even specially transformed an entire planet as a testing ground for this purpose, putting a large number of robots to fight, and trying to stimulate the intelligence of these robots through the 'desire to survive' written at the bottom.
The planet's energy supply is fixed, and in order to ensure its normal operation, robots must compete with each other.
However, it turned out that this approach of the gatherers did not work, and until they found the β of the Odegar civilization, the planetary test sites did not give birth to a single artificial intelligence life, none of them gave birth to an 'I', but simply a machine operating according to an internal program.
After gaining β of the Odegar civilization, the gatherers began to analyze its inner workings.
In fact, its internal structure is not complicated, and it is even much more backward than the computers used by the collectors, so it is not difficult for the collectors to dissect it, and the advanced β of the Odega civilization is its internal program, and its underlying logical chain is composed of four numbers, 0, 1, -1, and the X character representing the imaginary number.
After analyzing each code, the collectors had a clearer understanding of the inner workings of the Odegar civilization β.
They began to expand on the Odegar β, using the Odegar β as an experimental object to observe the reaction of each new code.
This is not an emotional torture, but only because this is the only way that the collectors can get the most accurate data.
Towards the end of their research, the collectors began their fabrication of solid-state brains.
The finished product is a ball the size of three human fists, and its appearance is white, looking like a handicraft carved from good jade, crystal clear.
However, it only looks like a jade product, the solid brain and jade are not touched at all, it is lighter than the same volume of jade, made of calcium-based cartilage, each bone cell is a miniature computing unit, which is built into a small computer, and the logic gate is realized through the input and output of calcium ions.
It is not only a computer, but also a living organ, with the advantages of a computer, but also retains the advantages of an organic brain, and the rest is waiting for a collector to settle in it.
The participants were easy to find, and the collectors were happy to dedicate themselves to the group, and after learning the genetic blueprint, they began to cocoon, and the wriggling flesh began to change according to the substance absorbed, gradually hardening and solidifying, and then slowly adjusting and changing the brain structure.
When the gatherer emerges from the cocoon under the expectant gaze of their kind, the gatherer prioritizes passing through the life field to confirm the other's 'loyalty', which is the first step in the test, and only after confirming that there are no anomalies, they will let their guard down.
"Take two steps and see, we need to confirm the function of the solid-state brain."
"Okay."
The test participant responded, opening his fangs and moving forward.
Perhaps because of the lack of adaptation, or the fact that the initial design of the solid-state brain still had defects that needed to be adjusted, the collectors involved in the experiment walked with a slight trembling as if they were babies who could fall at any moment.
"Is something wrong?"
The collector who saw this asked.
"It feels weird......"
The collector in the experiment replied with a wave of his fang.
"Strange? What's the blame? ”
"I feel that my current body is not my own body, and I feel an inexplicable strangeness." Experimental participant tracts.
The information that the collectors who participated in the experiment responded to was the real-time experimental data, and the collectors talked about it because of this feedback.
"Something went wrong?"
"Probably not......
"All aspects should be taken into account......
Without a single reason for this, the collectors took a compromise approach.
"Continue to be active for a while, and if there is still a sense of abnormality, consider adjusting."
